For sale is a used GSS Baby Sumo in excellent condition. This is a high-quality power amp from France and a very cool piece of piece of gear. Purchased about a year ago on Talkbass. Pairs well with any preamp, and sounded particularly great with my Broughton Archetype. Added removable rubber...
Hi all,
Yes, I know this is stupid, but I'm a tinkerer its what I do. I have taken the amp head out if my GK MB212 combo and made it a seperate head and cab. Just used thick cable to wire in 2 6.35 jacks and away we go!
It works... sorta. Trying it at home it was ok, but if I attack too hard...
For those who still like pre/power rack rigs, I’m selling one of mine…

Selling my Peavey IPR 1600 Power Amp. Used it with my Sansamp RBI / power amp rig. Works great. Haven’t had any issues with the amp. Decided to go with a combo amp.

Hey TB!
I've been GAS free for a while now, but no longer!
I'm building a pedal rig but want to ensure I have at 500W+ @ 4Ohm available when I don't have PA coverage. Ideally it'd just be a power amp like the Jay Ganz Straight Ahead I can put on the board, but if there are rackmount units or...
This was a Guitar Center rescue- when I found this the tone stack wasn't working properly. It turned out to just be a dirty tube socket, as after I cleaned all the pots and buttons as well as where the 12AX7 connects to the board it sprang to life. I triple checked all the functions and outputs...
I recently bought an Ampeg SVT 350T combo amp (not to be confused with the 350H head). It sounds great and had a problem with a poti, which I have already replaced.
After playing for a while (approx. 30 to 40 minutes), the output cuts out intermittently. When I hit a string hard and turn up the...
I’ve used this thing on 100s of gigs since I bought it and it’s been amazing. Great for anybody running a separate preamp.
Only weird thing that’s developed is that it’s always on once it’s plugged in regardless of the power switch, but this hasn’t been an issue for me. The case also has a...

Hey guys!!
I'm looking into updating my current rig. I love what it does, but a lot of newer equipment has come out that I feel would just work better. The issue is that my brain isn't smart enough to know how to configure it.
Current Set Up:
Bass > Pedalboard with HX Stomp doing Amp Sims >...

For sale here is a Crown XLS1002. I put it in my rack in 2017 to replace an older style XLS that crapped out. It’s performed flawlessly ever since. Excellent condition. It does include the power cord, though it’s not pictured.
Asking $250, shipping not included, PayPal only. Message with any...
I bought this new from Jay in August 2024. It is in excellent, like new condition and works perfectly.
I ended up going in a different direction (Subway D-350) and this amp needs a new home.

Super clean, indistinguishable from new w/ the original shipping box. Purchased direct from Demeter in April 2024 and has seen studio use only.

I've been trying to put together a budget rig for live shows that emulates Ampeg tones. So I got my SansAmp V2 and a used Crown Power-Tech 2, with the intention of eventually finding a used 4x10 cab. I'm curious if 1) if my tone is coming from my pedalboard, should I try to find a more...

This is the very rare Focus SA (Satellite Amplifier) from the venerable Acoustic Image (RIP). Very few were ever made. Featherweight (less than 4lbs), fanless, and incredibly loud (600W). The SA incorporates the same power amp topology as the Focus and offers the same transparent...

I’ve been experimenting with a new setup, and experienced a loud recurring popping sound from one of the speaker cabs.
I’ve got a GED2112 preamp going to a crest power amp, powering one 2x12 and one 1x18. The amp channels are set to max and the preamp channels are at about 1/4 gain. This is...
Been lurking on TB for years but decided to start posting here as I'm really diving into building.
Basically, I'm designing a combo rn and need power Amp suggestions.
The load is 4ohms (two 8s parallel) and the linear Xmax is simulated at ~300W RMS with the mechanical max occuring around 800W...
As this claimed to be preamp, can I connect Spectra into power amplifier and get a good sound? I have MarkBass New York 121 12” cabin that I use very little. Planning to get (don`t have yet) a about 100W power amp. I could then use EC Spectra for practice with my MB cabin.
Could this work, or...
I’m totally new to the power amp world of rigs but I need some guidance on how to put together a proper rig for it.
Right now I’m running a Aguilar tone hammer 500 into a fender rumble 4 x 10 and a fender rumble 115. I’m looking at buying and identical 4 x 10 so I can get closer to an 8 x 10...
I'm going to be upgrading my entire pedalboard rig into a single Helix Floor unit for bass.

Hi all
Recently I purchased 30$ power amp and quality is so good, I want to share the details.
I have very old Ampeg ba-115 built at 1980th. It is used by many hands, amp has gone completely. But the cabinet condition is acceptable, I looked for some cheap d-class amp. I found 100W mono power...
Nearly mint. Only used in my living room with my Kemper. Purchased new from Chuck Levins. Will no longer need on account of my new Mesa head. Specs coming. Trades, perhaps a great pre/eq for my board. $350 shipped conus. Best price you’ll find I believe.

Up for sale are a pair of PVM215 tower speakers. Comes with a power amp and a 2 channel, 15 band eq. Great for venues with stages. Since they're floor speakers, they can't be pole mounted. But, get them about 4 feet from the ground, and they really fill the room. The tweeter on these is very...

Hello guys
I'm building my live rig and I need your advice.
I have my preamp pedal (Laney Digbeth), happy with it at the moment.
I'm planning to buy a Guitar Sound Systems Baby Sumo power amp (300W @8 Ohm - 600W @ 4 Ohm).
Still uncertain on the cabinet to match.
One really important matter is...
Hey guys
I'm in an ampless gigging situation where a DI is needed. I don't have one on my pedalboard and I'm liking what I have heard coming out from the Laney Digibeth.
I am usually a 4 cable connection guy, using the head preamp session and the fx loop for the other effects.
Using a pedal...
Didn’t see a thread on this particular issue so I thought I’d go for it..
we all know how massive that power amp was.. (not just in tone, but in weight!) that big “Majestic” “slightly crunchy” “very creamy” ‘thing’ that it does..
I owned the 750B & the 750E many years ago.. I didn’t totally...
Probably one of the most cost effective power amps on the market... for a *very* economical price point! Plus, it comes in a pretty dang nice rack case!!
I'm also including a TS > XLR cable for easy use with any preamp.
Asking $400 + actual shipping, CONUS, or local to the St. Louis area.

Hello,
The fender rumble 500 watts combo works as follows:
Without an extension cabinet: 350W with 2/16 = 8 ohm (internal speakers)
With an extension cabinet: 500W with 2/16= 8ohm (internal) - extension 8ohm = 4 ohm.
I never use an extension cabinet, and my speakers are sounding funny lately...
Hi all,
I am in the process of building my first rig for live performance and I'm looking for some advice. I currently have the Tech-21 GED-2112 Rack Mount SansAmp. I would like to pair that with a new power amp and speaker cabinet (currently using a friend's old rig and would like to return it...
After wanting an Arkham Oracle something bad for about 2 year I now have one and it is BEAUTIFUL! Thru the “power amp in” jack on the back of my ampeg PF500 it is totally glorious! However, for most gigs and rehearsals I just use a tc bam200, plenty of power and unremarkable for what I use it...
